Chapter 2
Later during breakfast…
"So, what do you two plan on doing today?" asked Kurata as everyone ate their breakfast. "I hope you two don't plan on staying up in Saito's room all day, if you know what I mean."
Both Saito and Louise stiffened up and blushed at Kurata's words which caused him to chuckle.
"W-We don't know what you're talking about, dad," Saito said, nervously, as he continued to blush and eat his food. Louise sat in a bit of a stunned silence while she blushed and ate.
"Uhuh," Kurata said with a smug face. Saito's mother was trying to ignore the conversation until Saito finally changed the subject.
"Anyways…I guess I could go introduce Louise to some of my old friends. Are there any still here?" asked Saito, curiously. By this time most of his friends would have either gone off to college or begun looking for work somewhere and he wasn't sure which stayed in Tokyo.
"Hmmm…I believe Sakura and Hikaru are still here because they said they were going to Tokyo University, and Toriyama said he was going to work here in Tokyo at his one of his father's old friend's restaurant, so he is still here. Ah! Asuna said she was going to an art school in Kyoto but she is here in Tokyo visiting some family! You may be able to meet up with them all. If you like I can contact them," Aki said, enthusiastically, as she wanted Saito to see his old friends again.
"A-Asuna?! Really?!" shouted Saito, nervously, causing Louise to react. Saito spaced out a bit and blushed which made Louise stare at him with a worried face.
"Who is Asuna?" Louise asked, curiously and a bit worriedly.
"Hm? Oh! Asuna is an old friend of Saito's. She is the daughter of my old high school friend and since I was so close with her mother, Saito spent a lot of time with her. She was also Saito's girlfriend. They broke up not long before Saito disappeared," Aki explained. The fact that Saito reacted in such a way to hearing about his ex made Louise a bit uncomfortable. Saito reacted to this immediately and his face flew over to look at her. He put his hand on hers to reassure her.
"Don't worry about it, Louise. She wasn't anywhere near as important to me as you are," Saito said, lovingly. Saito could hear his dad making a choking sound and saw him pointing his finger towards his open mouth as if saying he was choking on their lovey dovey and his mother began to giggle.
Saito and Louise broke away and continued to eat their food with a slight blush on their faces.
"I'll go and call them all. Where do you want to try meeting them, Saito?" asked Aki as she began to get up from the table and put her empty plate in the sink.
"U-Um…let's meet at Koichi Karaoke," said Saito before he finished up the food he was eating. Aki nodded and left the room to make some calls and Saito picked up the table after everyone finished eating.
Around 11am that day…
"Saito! You're going to be late if you don't leave now!" shouted Aki from downstairs. Saito was supposed to meet everyone at the karaoke place at 11:30 and it takes around 20 minutes to get there.
"Alright!" shouted Saito as he and Louise raced downstairs.
"Saito, make sure not be out too late, we are having your grandmother and sister come by later to see you," said Kurata, sternly. "Also, Saito, you know you can't carry a sword around in Tokyo."
"But I wanted to introduce Derf. I mean he's my partner; he deserves to meet them, too. If only I had some way to hide him," said Saito as he tried to think of an idea.
"Partner, why not just leave me here and use a World Door to get me later," Derf said after he popped out of his scabbard.
"That's a great idea, plus you won't get in trouble," said Kurata.
"Alright, I'll remember to get you later, Derf. Try not to have any embarrassing conversations with my parents, okay?" said Saito, sternly, before he put Derf by the umbrella rack.
"See ya in a bit," said Derf.
"Alright, bye everyone. Come on Louise," said Saito as he grabbed Louise's hand and they left for the karaoke place.
Later at Koichi Karaoke…
"Hey look, I can see it. We're almost there, Louise," said Saito as they ran over to the karaoke building. They were a bit late because they started to get a bit lovey dovey on the way over, so they had to run over.
"Is that them, Saito? There is a group of people out in front," said Louise while panting from their running.
"Hey, guys!" shouted Saito, while waving his free arm in the air, as he ran over to the group.
"Saito!" shouted one of the girls.
"Oh my gosh, Saito! It's really you!" shouted the other girl who looked like she was about to break into tears.
The other two guys had big grins on their faces and waved back at him with a happy and relieved look in their eyes.
Saito and Louise had reached the group and Saito let go of Louise and mingled into the group receiving high fives from the guys and them giving him noogies saying how he worried them. One of the girls clung to him, happily, and made jokes about how much she missed him while the other girl stood slightly silenced just outside the group.
Everyone quieted down when they noticed her biting her lip and waiting, patiently. They all stepped away from him and Saito and the girl stared at each other.
"Saito…it's really you…" the girl said, fighting back tears. Saito smiled and nodded and the girl threw herself at him, hugging him and crying into his shirt out of happiness that he was back.
"A-Asuna! Why are you freaking out so much?" shouted Saito in surprise. Louise stood in the background with a frown after realizing that Asuna, Saito's ex, was hugging him so tightly and crying similarly to how Louise reacted when Saito died and came back after the battle between Albion.
"I-I've missed you so much! What happened to you? When you disappeared I was so worried, I thought you had died or someone took you!" shouted Asuna as she cried into him. Saito sighed and rubbed her head in reassurance to try and calm her down.
(Asuna has silver hair that flows down her back to her hips. She had a tanned complexion and is a gorgeous looking woman. She is blessed with a healthy bosom, if you know what I mean, and has a good figure.)
After a few minutes, Asuna calmed and all of them headed into the karaoke building and got a decent sized room for all of them.
"So, Saito, when are you gonna introduce us to the pink haired cutie, that you brought along?" asked the goofy looking guy.
"Oh, uh sure but first let me introduce you guys to her," Saito began before turning towards Louise. "Louise, these are my friends. The goofy looking one is Toriyama. He may look a little bit like an idiot but he can make some great food. His parents died when he was younger and he has been taken care of by his dad's friend who owns the best noodle restaurant this side of Tokyo. The other guy is Hikaru, he's a genius and a pretty nice guy but he can be a little dense. The girl sitting next to him is Sakura. She's an anime nerd and she always loves to dress up like characters from her favorite anime. She also had a huge crush on Hikaru."
"Idiot! Don't just blurt out random things! Besides Hikaru and I are dating so leave me alone," shouted Sakura, angrily, as she fought back against Saito's teasing.
"Really!? Who confessed first!?" Saito asked in a shocked voice.
"I did, haha," said Hikaru, sheepishly. "Toriyama left us alone at the movies and I confessed out of nervousness. It was just before you disappeared so we didn't get a chance to tell you."
"Wow, cool! I'm happy for you guys," congratulated Saito, before his attention was taken by an 'ahem' coming from Asuna. "Oh! Louise this is Asuna, my childhood friend. She was the girl who was crying so much outside. She was always a crybaby."
Asuna puffed up her cheeks in annoyance at Saito's teasing and he began to laugh at her.
"I'm also his ex-girlfriend and Saito I don't care if you just got back, you tease me again and I'll punch you," Asuna said, childishly. Saito cringed at the thought because he knew Asuna hit hard and Louise fidgeted slightly at hearing how easily Asuna could say 'ex'.
"Anyways, guys this is my wife, Louise," Saito said, easily, as he gestured towards her. Louise bowed, slightly, to acknowledge them and they all stared at them with surprised faces.
"Ahaha! Saito you're a real riot! She may be a cutie but there's no way you two are married," said Toriyama as he completely believed it to be a joke.
Saito and Louise held up their left hands to reveal the rings and Sakura, Toriyama, and Hikaru all did a spit take with the tea they were drinking.
"WHAT THE HELL, SAITO!? HOW COULD YOU BE MARRIED AFTER ONLY TWO AND A HALF YEARS OF BEING GONE?! HOW LONG HAVE YOU EVEN KNOWN THIS GIRL?!" shouted Toriyama in complete shock as Sakura and Hikaru sat in a shocked silence. Asuna sat off to the side with a horrified look on her face.
"I've known her for two and a half years. We got married around a week ago," Saito said, bluntly. Toriyama stared at him in disbelief at how he could say that so calmly and the rest remained in their previous poses.
Sakura finally broke out of her daze to speak. "You knock her up?"
"W-What!? No! And how you say that so calmly?!" asked Saito as he was surprised to hear such a question.
"I'm not pregnant! Saito and I got married because we love each other!" Louise defended, sternly. The others stared in continued disbelief and Saito smiled and put a hand on hers.
Asuna got up and left the room before Sakura quickly followed her with a worried expression as to what was wrong with her.
"What's wrong with Asuna?" Saito asked, worriedly.
"After you disappeared, Saito, Asuna blamed it on herself for cheating on you and dumping you so harshly. She hasn't interacted with any guys besides Toriyama and I since you disappeared. She said you were the only one she would ever love again. So seeing you with a wife must have shocked her pretty hard," explained Hikaru. Saito frowned and clenched his fists on his knees. Louise looked at him with worry and she put a hand on his shoulder to remind him he wasn't alone.
Saito looked at her and smiled before getting up.
"I'm going to talk to her," Saito said as he walked towards the door.
After he closed the door he began running to look for Asuna and Toriyama and Hikaru began to question Louise about where Saito had been and what had happened to him.
Saito found Sakura trying to comfort Asuna who was sitting in the corner, hugging her legs. As Saito approached, Sakura got up and began to walk towards him. She put a hand on his shoulder and glanced at him. He nodded and she left to go back to the room.
Saito walked over to Asuna and sat next to her, not speaking.
They sat in silence for a minute or so and Asuna finally broke the silence.
"I'm sorry…" began Asuna, sadly, without looking at Saito. "You just got back…It's a happy time, and I'm just ruining it."
"No, it's my fault for not realizing your feelings beforehand. I'm sorry that you felt the way you did when I disappeared and I was a bit happy that you felt that way about me, but I love Louise. I've gone through a lot to protect her and we're too close from me to stop loving her. I think you should move on, there are other guys who could make you happy," Saito said, sternly yet soothingly. Both sat silent for a few seconds and Asuna stretched her legs out and tilted her head back and began to laugh aloud.
"Ahahahahaha! You always know how to make me feel better, Saito!" said Asuna, happily, a few tears drifting down her cheeks.
"Well I know you pretty well. We've been close for almost our whole lives," said Saito, happily, as he chuckled. Asuna stared at Saito with a happy look and she smiled brightly at him.
"Hey, Saito, close your eyes. I want to give you a welcome back present that I got you," said Asuna, suspiciously. Saito looked at her with a puzzled look and shrugged before following her orders. Asuna scooted close to him and slowly moved close to his face.
Asuna kissed him lightly making Saito's eyes open wide in surprise and he remained frozen in shock. Asuna broke away and stared at his face before giggling and hopping to her feet.
"You've always been cute when I surprise you," Asuna said, lovingly.
Saito sighed and got up before he shoved his hands in his pockets as they walked back to the room.
"If you do that again my wife is going to kill you," Saito said, bluntly.
"Bring it on," Asuna said, playfully, with a smile on her face.
Troublesome girl, thought Saito as he heard Asuna giggle and skip next to him.
So? What did you guys think?
I decided to keep up the harem theme that Zero no Tsukaima originally had and to be honest I think it will add alot of humor to the story.
Anyways, feel free to Review and let me know how I'm doing, also PLEASE put forth any ideas you have. I'm always looking to incorporate some reader ideas into my stories and since the time between me finishing the anime and beginning this fanfic is short, I haven't had alot of time to plan out every detail of the story so your ideas will be greatly appreciated.
Anyways until next time...byeeee :D
